    In the manual.. Check Page 4-25. Fuse 74.

    Electronics are VERY sensitive. Disconnect the battery and charge it/replace it. If not a fuse check your immobilizer and cycle the key fob a few times, might have lost the code.

    Oh.. and next time don't jump it... Take the battery out and charge it if needed.

    I really hope you have not done any damage. NEVER jump a 360 and always heed the above advice. Consider a "battery conditioner" to keep the battery topped up if you don't use the vehicle regularly.

    While I agree with taking the battery out, there is a Ferrari recommended way to jump start these cars. Use the battery connections behind the drivers seat (in the U.S., if in the UK behind the passengers) to jump these cars. My Ferrari DEALER just jumps at the battery and says its fine to do it that way, I use what Ferrari recommends, behind the seat. Actually, I prefer to never let the battery go dead ever again :)

    Yes there is a recommended way but that doesn't mean that it is a good idea. Among other things there have been way too many instrument clusters blown out from jump starting these cars.

    dead no click no nothing? OK then bypass 90% of ferrari electronics and runa remote starter right to the starter in engine bay. If it fires you know problem is upstream. If no fire suspect the starter motor. Acess can be trickey but starter motors are only a couple bolts and couple of wires to remove. Local rebuilder can fix it for under $200

    I had flat battery on 360. Tried to remove battery but alarm sounded.

    2 local Ferrari workshops said that its okay to trickle charge while battery terminals still attached.....just not more than 4amps.

    I've since rigged up a solar charger directly onto the battery while it sits dormant. It's better for the battery not to be charged then discharged then back up again.
